you know, your right. I was just taking the files in the help output of
the hxcomp (using sandcastle and msbuild targets) instead of just the
final compile collection files (gee I feel stupid). Thanks for pointing
that out. However, it wasn't all for not since I did have to poke my
head into the dark cavern of merge modules for generated output...

Bob, yes I'm talking about Hxs files (this was called Help2 as
opposed to Help1 [chm file] within Microsoft and other circles) or some
say MSDN and HTML. When you generate the MSDN content it creates html
bits that are referenced in the index and collections file. For example
I have 28 classes plus three namespace files which generate > 500 files
of documentation that must be packaged up for deployment.
The reason I asked is that Help 2.x lets you compile all those things
into a handful of files. You don't need hundreds -- you need two or
three (five at most, for complicated help collections). And WiX already
supports them.
